Program Alert - Science Meets Art!

Deep in my heart I’m a nerd. I love to watch science shows, even when I’m not exactly sure what is being discussed. This Saturday presents the perfect public program for my science-geek side and my inner-librarian, with beautiful art on view as a juicy bonus.

Cyntia Karnes, senior paper conservator at the Library of Congress, will offer insight into the art of John Marin, an artist from our permanent collection and part of our special exhibition American Moderns on Paper: Masterworks from the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art. Ms. Karnes has completed a technical examination of Marin’s watercolors and will share her views on the influences on Marin’s work.

Admission is free, but because seating is limited, reservations are required. Call 817.989.5030 or e-mail education@cartermuseum.org to register.
